• The app reads values from the admin panel API after login:
• Playlist enabled or disabled
• Playlist URL
• EPG enabled or disabled
• EPG URL
• Maintenance mode
• Admin Telegram account
• Your Android resource value for the API is at:
• ```xml

Change `auth_api_base_url` to your website url.

• The EPG URL is optional.
